He’s one hundred years old. He’s ready to die.
Then he meets a boy struggling to live.
Murray McBride has outlived his friends, his career, and the love of his life. At one hundred, he’s tired—of pills, of loneliness, of waking to another empty day.
Jason Cashman is ten, and his failing heart may not give him many tomorrows.
When Murray discovers Jason’s handwritten list—Five Things I Want to Do Before My Heart Dies—something long dormant stirs. If Jason’s time is short, Murray decides it won’t be small.
From hitting a home run in a major league stadium…
To giving Jason’s mother a reason to smile again…
To attempting something that feels like real magic…
What begins as a simple promise becomes an unforgettable journey of friendship, courage, and second chances. As the clock ticks for them both, Murray must face his own regrets and decide whether it’s truly too late to matter.
Tender, funny, and deeply moving, The Five Wishes of Mr. Murray McBride is a life-affirming story about love, loss, and the power of keeping a promise.
If you loved A Man Called Ove or The Five People You Meet in Heaven, this heartfelt novel will stay with you long after the final page.
